Mark 12:38–44

38

In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,

39

and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,

40

those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

Selected verse

Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.

42

A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.

43

He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,

44

for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
